The Red Brick Times

I heard an acoustic guitar duo on Mountainstage (a West Virginia live/radio program) streamed through WUMB Folk Radio tonight. They are Rodrigo y Gabriella. They met as teens in Mexico where they were in a Thrash Metal band. Now they are from Dublin, Ireland, first by way of Dublin in 1999, then Copenhagen where they busked on the street in sub-zero weather to stay alive, then Barcelona and back to Dublin. They appeared on David Letterman and released an album titled "Rodrigo y Gabriela" in October '06. Be sure to keep your mouth closed as you listen to them, so you don't drool down the front of your shirt.

I meant to comment right after watching the "Letterman" link but got busy with something else and forgot. Anyway... nice! I enjoyed that. These guys were in a "thrash metal band"? WTF's a "thrash metal band"? No, don't tell me. I'm better off without knowing.
